that publicity through the press shall be
made of the rumored injury. Whenever
that is done, the REcoRD-UNIoN will not
fail to treat the case as the truth may
justify, regardless of persons or influences
invoked to prevent it. Until such appeal
in behalf of the alleged victim is made,
the scandal must be treated on par with
scores of others which deal with skeletons
in private closets. The columns of the
press cannot be kept free from all refer
ence to scandals; the means of communi
cation are so multitudinous and the news
gathering art so keen-scented that tele
graphic dispatches alone are sufficient to
flood Newspaper with details of the
wickedness, venality and corruption ex-
tant There is enough, heaven knows,
of the bad that comes to the surface,
enough of venal actions, dishonest conduct,
of domestic outrage, of marital infelicity,
of connubial disloyalty, of deceit and
cruelty and outrage; enough of the bad
ness of the world that goes to print to
satisfy the most morbid appetite for filth.
There is no need to search for private
scandal or parade names before the pub
lie to the shame of the innocent, unneces-
sarily. The press that does not keep de-
tectives prowliug in private closets be-
cause it is not to its taste, can afford to
laugh at the charges of the foul-minded
that it is bought to silence, because it re-
fuses to feed vitiated appetite for indie
cent news

Another san Joaquin Valley Railroad

Though no company has yet been incor-
porated by the Southern Pacific Company
for the purpose of building q line down
the east side of the San Joaquin Valley.
still the Directors ale making preparations
to commence the work at a very early date
a few days since construction train was
side-tracked at MERGED, while another
train drew up in the vicinity of Visalia.
Inc company project is most extensive
one, and involves the construction of line
from Oakdale to Poso, paralleling the
main line between these two points Be-
these two main lines there will be branches
crossing the valley at intervals, connecting
with the main track at MERGED. Fresno
Visaiia and Tulare, thus establishing an
entire east-side system for the valley. This
line will open up the fertile foothill coun-
try OF the Sierra Nevada, undoubtedly the
most fertile fruit belt in the State.
Efforts will be made to secure subsidies
from Fresno, Tulare and other cities of the
plain, 1t being evident that these cities will
be largely benefited by the extensions. An
arrangement was made with the people of
SlSalla some months back, by which the
oranch line, nine miles in length, connect
ing that city and Goshen, was to be sur-
rendered to the Southern Pacific Company
in return for being included in the distri
button OF branch lines on the east side of
the valley and for being given equal rates
TO those given at Goshen. These privileges
will undoubtedly result in building up a
big supply point OF Visalia.
On the west side of the valley few mod.
itications have been made in the running
of the TracyHuron line. some twenty
miles of which will be ready for operation
shortly. A detour will be made into the
coast ranges, by which the line will pass
through Haggin & Cars large tract. This
line will connect with the main lire at

FRANCE.

The motion in the French Chamber to
declare the Presidency vacant received 19l
for, to 1863 votes in opposition. This will
unquestionably be accepted by President
Grevy as an expression of confidence, and
will disincline him to accept the advice of
Clemenceau that his resignation is neces-
sary. President Grevy as a patriot, can
not, in this critical period in the history of
the Republic, afford to set the precedent of
the Chief Executive of the nation retiring
before the clamor of turbulent legislative
branch, nor is there any likelihood of his
doing so, though it is intimated that he
has considered it. Rural France stands
behind and firmly supports him. The I'M
rest of the Capital, promoted and aggra-
waited by the conspiracies of Monarchists.
socialists and pretenders, is not likely to
greatly disturb the loyalty of the country
outside of the great cities. At a time
when Germany is upon the eve of trouble,
and the great minds that have preserved
German unity are soon to be withdrawn,
leaving none capable to fill their places,
France has greater need than ever to pre-
serve harmony at home. The Monarchists
see their opportunity, and will do all in
their power to foment discomfort that may
lead on to revolution. The hope of free
government hangs trembling upon the
verge of an abyss. Grevy is of all others
the man to save France from dissolution.
The nation has reason to be thankful that
this man, to whom was given the precious
privilege of being among the first to pro-
claim the Republic nearly two decades
ago, should at the advanced age of eighty
four be so well preserved physically and
Intellectually, and possessed of such vigor-
Gus mentality. Such men are raised up to
nations but once in an age; their sue
cessors are rarely of the same mettle, and
history does not repeat them save at long
intervals. The destiny of France reposes
to-day in the hand of one such man. If
he yields..to the advice of Clemenceau
and Floquet and Goblet, and deserts his
post now, no man can possibly forecast all
the RESULT must be confusion, it NAV be
anarchy.

The Stanford unirersitr-

The San Francisco Chronicle of yesterday
says:
Senator Stanford entertained the men,
bers OF the Board of Trustees of the Leland
Stamford Jr, University at his elegant
home near Menlo Park, last Friday Alter
being driven around Palo Alto. viewing
its wealth of verdure and horseiissb, the
Trustees were taken to the site cf The pro
posed University. They were surprised at
what was shown them. They knew that
the landscape gardeners were at work on
the grounds and that some progress had
